The darker yellow is actually "screaming yellow" - i just submitted pics on a thread in this forum of my zinc yellow GT. Use that as a comparison between the two.

You can't beat the way that Zinc yellow looks at night though. It's gorgeous.

I thought the same..in the sun it has a faded,oxidized or pastel look to it.

Also if you try to buy Dupli color touch up I have never found it for Screaming Yellow,instead buy Chrome Yellow...they are the same if you do some research on it.I had a small scratch on the back panel I wanted to fix...but that was before I made the whole thing black on the rear....

Me too. I had an 02 V6 that was Zinc and after pulling my GT up to it, it really made the Zinc look bad IMO.

By the sounds of it, you have Screamin yellow. Zinc yellow in person is quite ugly.

Not a fan of zinc yellow.

Ford had a great yellow in 1998 with the Chrome Yellow Cobra...and then followed it up with Zinc.

Yeah I agree the Zinc yellow looks like its not finished, I definately like the Screamin yellow or chrome yellow better. I'm biased though.

Thanks for the help.
